A custom cake is a 72-hour lead time, not a product — Patna bakeries lose orders to phone calls that came too late. SWIQ takes cake and bulk pre-orders with date, size and design notes attached, holds pickup slots so the counter isn't handing boxes during the morning rush, and captures festival demand weeks ahead (Diwali hampers, wedding dessert tables) instead of turning people away on the day. Pickup windows mean no order waits melting behind the display. Across Patna we track 40 businesses so far — every market we enter starts with real, verified listings.
